    Why would these work only on the post-truth, anti-science, pro-religion party?

  Liberals fall for different kinds of deepfakes.

  Here’s an example of a deepfake research paper that’s being circulated on Fediverse, Reddit etc: https://lemmy.zip/post/60720377

  Calling it out for being AI generated was met with a mixed response too.

    Where do you see “liberals” explicitly falling for it?

    Absolutely.

    Anyone who says they don’t have a bias or assumption is very vulnerable to have their bias and assumptions exploited.

    Anyone who thinks they’re immune to propaganda is most at risk of being persuaded by it.
